Fox holds and the criticism Rush Limbaugh gave Mr. Fox. The conversation appeared to make Rush Limbaugh out to be a monster for criticizing Michael J. Fox&#8217;s promotion of candidates who support stem cell research.<\/p>\n<p>I am one who thinks Rush may have crossed a line and I was glad to hear he apologized, but I must point out that CTV made Michael J. Fox sound like a hero without giving the story due diligence.<\/p>\n<p>There are many types of stem cell research, as I have <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/officiallyscrewed.com\/?p=331\">reported in the past<\/a>.  And for Michael J. Fox and the CTV to not differentiate which ones are being discussed is wrong.  From Mr. Fox&#8217;s perspective, he has a vested interest in any research which may cure his Parkinson&#8217;s so he is biased.  From the CTV&#8217;s perspective, they should report the differences.<\/p>\n<p>These include the fact that Adult stem cell research has cured many things, as has umbilical cord stem cell research, whereas embryonic has not cured anything.  The first two are legal in most western nations.  It is the embryonic stem cell research that is in question.<\/p>\n<p>I think both Mr. Fox and the CTV need to do a bit more homework.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning on Canada AM, the crew I enjoy watching threw a curve ball out there when discussing the stem cell research position Michael J.
